Yesterday the so-called “Central Park Karen,” aka Amy Cooper was arraigned on misdemeanor charges of Filing a False Report in the 3rd degree. Finally. The incident, which occurred in May, involved a white woman who became enraged when a black man by the name of Chris Cooper (no relation) asked her to leash her dog, as was required in that
Their hopes were dashed. Their prayers (if they pray) were ignored. Much to their surprise and consternation, President Trump recovered. As everyone knows, after only 3 and 1/2 days in the hospital, he was discharged from Walter Reid on Monday. After flying back to the White House, he ascended the long steps to the portico quickly and with no assistance.
For every yin there’s yang. For every positive there’s negative. For every dark there’s light. For every sacred there’s profane. For every high there’s low. For every good there’s evil.

Notes From Battlefield 2020 •>First, THE DEBATE Tuesday’s presidential debate between President Trump and former Vice President Biden featured numerous contretemps. The mutual animosity was plain to see. But, the surprising thing was that, although Mr. Trump often favors the use of belittling sobriquets aimed at his adversaries, most of the name calling on Tuesday night came from the supposedly
Speaker Nancy Pelosi has been warning America. Day after day she tell us of the grave danger we’re in. Night after night she sounds the alarm: our democracy is in DANGER. How so?… Well, isn’t it obvious?… The Speaker explains, verbatim: “Donald Trump and his henchmen are dangerous to our DEMOCRACY.”… THAT’S IT FOLKS… “Donald Trump and his henchmen” are
In my last essay, “Supreme Frenzy”, I remarked how it was extremely unlikely that Democrats could derail the expected appointment of a conservative justice to the Supreme Court by President Trump. A Supreme Court nomination may, by precedent of the Neil Gorsuch appointment, be approved by a simple Senate majority (i.e. 51 votes, if all Senators are present, less if
The so called “election year appointment” of a Supreme Court Justice has generated enormous controversy. Almost from the moment of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s last breath, Democrats went into a frenzy at the prospect of a Supreme Court composed of a conservative majority. One of the most definitive statements on the issue, however, is, verbatim: “There is nothing in the
The recently leaked officer body cam video of the arrest of George Floyd that was obtained by the United Kingdom newspaper, the Daily Mail, confirms much of what the already publicized witness cell phone videos show. But the new footage, reveals something more. Something that, when considered with important autopsy findings, is VERY relevant to determining exactly what killed Mr.
